Hope you are having a great week so far. Today I've got my rescheduled appointment at the hospital to have a nerve conduction test - I had to cancel due to the snow 2 weeks ago and then this afternoon we have a meeting at Jack's school to get information about his GCSE options for next year. It's so hard for them to make decisions that could have an impact on their future at this age as he has no idea what he wants to do - other than play on his X-Box - as with many other teenage boys I'm sure that he would get an A* if that was an option lol!!!

Jack's not feeling too well today - think he's picked up a bug from somewhere - his friend was ill all last week so I guess he will be staying at home today - so if I don't get to pop in on you all you'll know why :o(

Topped with the new Christmas Circle Sentiments Set 2 - available here

A bit of ribbon and some silver fibres with a snowflake charm to finish off.

Please pop over to the main challenge blog to check out the fabulous inspiration from the rest of my DT buddies.

Hope you can find sometime to join in the fun with us too - you could be the lucky winner of 2 individual digi images of your choice (subject to availability). And there are sooooo many adorable images to choose from you'll be spoilt for choice :o)

Hope you have all had a lovely weekend.
Lola Arizona was here to stay and left for home with her Daddy on Sunday afternoon but Jamie got a phone call from Katy asking if we could keep her until Tuesday as she had just got 'the' call from the hospital about her Grandad - sad times :o(

So I'm sorry I've not been around much - hopefully will get a chance to catch up with you all soon.

How are you all doing with the snow - we had about 6 inches or more yesterday but lucky no more so far today!!

Jack was REALLY happy to have a snow day and set off to sledge and have a snowball fight but not so happy when I shouted him back in to change out of his new chinos he got at Christmas!!!!! Boys just don't think do they lol!!!

So yesterday I shared a money box I decorated for my scrummilicious Lola Arizona and today I would like to share the one I decorated for my squidgilicious Oliver :o)

Here's what I did with this one:

Painted it with Gesso and then a coat of pearlescent blue acrylic paint.

I also painted the large MDF letter and covered it with a piece of co-ordinating Design Paper - now some may think - just like I did that the letter is skew whiff - but I checked with the MDF man and he said it wasn't - but I'm still not too sure lol!!!
